All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.reflect.Type
```
public class ResolvedRecursiveType
extends ResolvedType
```
Specialized type placeholder used in cases where type definition is recursive; to avoid infinite loop, reference that would be "back" in hierarchy is represented by an instance of this class. Underlying information is achievable (for full resolution), but not exposed using super type (parent) accessors; and has special handling when used for constructing descriptions.

`ResolvedType`	`getArrayElementType()`	To avoid infinite loops, will return null type

`ResolvedType`	`getSelfReferencedType()`	Accessor that must be used to find out actual type in case of "self-reference"; case where type refers recursive to itself (like, `T implements Comparable<T>`).

`boolean`	`isAbstract()`
`boolean`	`isArray()`	Method that indicates whether this type is an array type.
`boolean`	`isInterface()`
`boolean`	`isPrimitive()`	Method that indicates whether this type is one of small number of primitive Java types; not including array types of primitive types but just basic primitive types.
`void`	`setReference(ResolvedType ref)`
